Change address bar...

[alexjewell]

Is there some way to change what displays as the address/url of the page to something other than what really is?

something like:



window.onload = function(){
document.address = 'http://www.somethingfake.com';}


Um, that didn't work. Any ideas?

This is considered a security risk since you could pretend to be another site.

You could use a frame, which would keep the URL of the main frame while inner frames or iframes are changing URLs.

You can't change the url of the page but you can make your url cleaner. But I assume that's not what you are looking for. For clean url, try this tutorial or you can always google for more tutorial on this topic.

yeah, I know all of the .htaccess stuff. I just have two servers, and for the time being, the files for the one server are on another and I don't have time to move all of them over. I wanted to change the url to make it look like those files were on the other server.

Ha, frames make me sick. Haha.

But yeah, thanks anyway guys.
